So I recently got a P20 Pro. On the whole am enjoying it and it's a good device.
One small thing I've noticed is for some apps (WhatsApp and Android Messages so far) it seems to display the time of the latest notification for that app for all notifications if there are multiple notifications for that app. If that makes sense.
Have a look at the screenshot attached. For WhatsApp they all say 52mins ago, although only the latest one was received 52mins ago. I've tried looking at notification settings both system wide and app specific. I can't seem to work out what the issue is.
Anyone had issues with this too? Or anyone got any suggestions to try fix this?
Same problem here. Can't change default tone for Messages, Gmail, Outlook, Outlook calendar and more... According to Huawei support (Norway), the development team is aware of the issue, and are "working on it".
Sorry, replied in wrong thread :silly:
Notifications are a mess on this phone. Can't expand them on the lock screen to read the full text or reply, can't long press and change notification-sound for each app like on every other phone running Oreo. The worst thing is that has been like this for months now and yet they haven't fixed it with a firmware update.
Gmail Delay in Sync and no Notifications sound problem has been hounding me for months now.
Tried all listed methods on the net . Gmail removed from battery optimization, checked, reset all Gmail settings, cleared cache & Data on Gmail app mutiple times, but my problems continue.
Anybody has a solution to the issue? Please help to sort out my gmail issues.
Am i the only one having Gmail issues?
Can somebody please help me no this.
I have the same problem, tried as you did, with no results, I ended using macrodroid to sync every 10 minutes, and sounding an alert when a new email arrives, just a workaroud, but it works

Thanks for answering and if this is a big problem being encountered by many users, why is it not being discussed?
Let me try this MacroDroid app. & hopefully it works satisfactorily.

Thanks for replying. I have been able to get the above and implement it, but i am facing 2 issues -
1) I get the same sound notifications for all my Gmail accounts, i just see my primary account for auto syncing . How to correct this.
2) In speak text, i have written Gmail. Macrodriod repeats/speaks "Gmail" twice or more times.
Please advise. Again, thanks for your help.

Finally switched to Blue mail and everything is almost perfect now, though as per what i read, my information may be compromised.
I am getting instant mails and notifications now, much better than my notifications of gmail on this & other mobile.
Just been having this same issue for months on my Canadian Note 8 and it's been since the June 1 security patch update. Gmail is delayed (seen upwards of a bit more than an hour), Samsung's default Messages app sometimes is delayed as well (but if I have my Gear S3 on the text will come through on that but not my phone which is weird AF) and then a couple authenticator apps that send push notifications also don't come through or are very delayed. It's starting to piss me off and got no help thus far from Samsung. If this isn't fixed soon then it's my last Samsung device I will ever buy.
Forgot to mention, also tried factory reset and still not working (along with now the Messages app is stuck on an older version and won't update so now I can't even use custom notification sounds per thread anymore). Absolutely ridiculous! I know I can sideload the updated version but I shouldn't have to do that, so frustrating!

Finally moved on to BlueMail after trying to sort out Gmail issues for 8 months or so.
Everything sorted out and gmail notifications now come in a jiffy .
Hi there,
has anyone have a fix for delayed notifications from Hangouts and possibly some other apps? I've got delay about 6-7 minutes, before notification come through, and when I go to conversation before notification come through there are messages unread. Already tried disabling [battery optimization] and [Restrict app background data] for Hangout but this does not fix things. I've wondered if this has something to do with issue with Nokia described at dontkillmyapp com but mine Nokia 9 doesn't have those system apps installed.
I don't have this issue with Hangouts on the 9PV, but I do have it on my OnePlus 6T. Funny enough though, my wife doesn't have the issue on her 6T. It's weird, but it seems almost random how Hangouts has delays like that.
Hello there,
I tried several Android 9 custom roms from the local xda rom forum and faced an issue with WhatsApp notifications in all of them.
When I use the phone and receive a new message, it shows a notification for it properly, I also get notifications in the lockscreen if the phone was used like 5 minutes ago.
But as soon as the phone is unused for like 15 minutes and I wake it up, no WhatsApp notifications are shown (notifications from other apps are), neither in the lockscreen nor after I woke it up. I then need to open the app manually, only then I get all new messages and corresponding notifications at one blow.
So far, WhatsApp is the only app where I noticed this problem, notifications from other apps like Telegram and Gmail work without trouble and as intended.
I always do a clean flash, don't use any customizations and set up WhatsApp freshly. I also excluded WhatsApp from Doze in the battery settings, but this didn't solve the problem.
In MIUI and other Nougat-based roms, I don't face this issue. I didn't test many Oreo-based roms to give a report about them concerning this issue.
I'm not sure if I do something wrong or if there really is an issue.
Do WhatsApp notifications work for you without problems?
Or do some of you also face this issue? If yes, were you able to fix it?

I am having same issue with WhatsApp.
Gmail and Telegram works fine for me, there is no issue with that. but i have issue with Instagram direct message that it does not shows until i open app but other notifications such as comment,new following are shown properly but i think it is a bug with Instagram since other notifications working fine.

Thanks for suggestion,all notifications are already turned on from Instagram settings and yet i've that issue. anyways i've reported this issue to instagram i don't know if that really works or not but hoping to fix soon in future.
Who else is seeing phantom notifications on their Always On Display?
My OP10Pro currently thinks I have an unread Facebook Messenger message, but when I go into Messenger, there's nothing there and no bubbles are showing!
(mental firmware bugs abound)
